Sorry if this is a simple question but I need to set up a slider to control the opening and closing of a beak (2 layers, top beak and bottom beak).
When the slider is at 100 the mouth is open and when its at 0 its closed. Beaks rotational values are both 0 at closed position and -17 and 23
respectively at open position.

Cheers in advance for any help...

Jase.

You can use linear() to convert one set of values to another. Apply something like this to each beak layer's rotation:

Code: Select all

slider = thisComp.layer("control layer").effect("beak slider")("Slider");
linear(slider, 0, 100, 0, -17);
